AMERICAN CAPITAL IN IT  Spokane and Pittsburg Men Are Interested.���May Lead to Other  Investments.  J3EAT_C@.  Copper Street  J, P. FLOOD,     Prop.  ��� ,,V'>'WWW��>  The Bay mine, once the center of  attraction in local raining- circles, from  which* has come some of the finest  specimens of gold bearing rock ever  seen in the Boundary, has resumed  operations after being- closed down for  some months. It was not lack of encouragement to proceed that caused  suspension of work last,February, but  it takes money to work a mine and a  little more was required to successfully  continue operations. Accordingly,  Manager H. V. Fuller journed to Spokane and opetied negotiations with  some of his friends, with the result  that plenty of capital is now auailable  aud work has been resumed. Mr.  Fuller has associated with him men  representing large Pittsburg capitalists where, it is stated, millions are  lying idle awaiting just such opportunities as the Boundary affords for  safe and highly profitable investment.  UNLIMITED CAPITAI,.        ���'.-''  For Mr. Fuller's Spokane  associates  this is the   first Canadian  investment,  .andit was largely upon his personal  recommendation that they became interested. To them it is largely a trial  step, but should the Bay produce the  .expected result?;and thefc:;ia^stments  prove profitable, they - state that they  will be ready to introduce unlimited  capital into the mining interests of  Greenwood.  A FAMOUS MINE.  In order to spread abroad with greater emphasis the already enviable fame  of the Greenwood high grade mines,  the Bay needs only to duplicate its past  record. There was ���a time when the  eyes of the whole country was centered  on the Bay and crowds gathered on the  street corners to view the rich gold  bearing rock, and speculate upon the  wealth of this and other mines. Selected samples have assayed several  hundred dollars to the ton, and the 125  ! tons of unsorted ore shipped returned  to the owners an average of $100 per  ton a^t^^il-exp^njse^of^freig^'t-anS"  treatment had been deducted. The  last shipment made went $119.55 net,  conclusively showing that the longer  the mine was worked the better were  the results obtained.  PRESENT DEVELOPMENT.

The main shaft,  with stope, is 125 feet, but on other  shafts over 300 feet of sinking has  been done, with 200 feet of drifting.  Mr. Fuller started work Friday pumping out the shaft and as many men as  possible will be put to work and the  mine will be thoroughly developed.  There is a steam boiler, blacksmith  shop and ore houss on the property  and a 20-horse power electric hoist has  been ordered.  Mr. Fuller states that there is now  enough ore in sight to begin shipping  as soon as an upraise can be made and  the new hoist installed. A shipment  will probably be made in about ten  days from the time mining operations  actually begin.  The financial interests now in control will shortly be incorporated as a  stock company and officers elected. In  the meantime Mr. Fuller will be in  charge.  ELECTROCUTED  Clarence Stelle Meets Sudden Death  at Smelter.  A sad accident occurred at the B. C.  smelter Tuesday morning when Clarence Stelle came to sudden death by  coming in contact with a live wire.  The unfortunate man was engaged  in adjusting some wires and came  in contact with a live wire and  received a se/ere shock. He was; standing on a ladder some twenty feet from  the ground, and not being able to call  out, no one knew of his danger. The  fierce current pulsating through his  hands burned off his fingers and released the suffering v.ictim and the un-  consciaus form fell to the ground, terribly burned but still animate. The  ambulance was hurriedly called and  Stelle was placed therein, but his condition was so low that before much of  the journey was covered life expired;  and the body was taken to Gulley's  undertaking,parlors. v: ���:."��������� ������'.'��� :*���'���  r  The late Mr. Stelle was a man about  30 years of age. He was a native of  the United States, having been born in  New York city. For some years he  was extensively engaged in the oil  business in California, but through the  influence of the Standard Oil Co. he  lost his property and business. Being  an electrician, he engaged in that business in San Francisco, and was just  ready to carry put some Alaskan contracts, having the.material all ready on  the wharf for shipment when the  earthquake ruined the city and deposited his supplies in the sea'.' He escaped with 50 cents and afterwards  worked his way to Greenwood, arriving  here last month. He was a skilled  workman, and had just set to work to  rebuild'his'forturies^dh^Canadian'soil^  when his career was so suddenly cut  off. He was a much esteemed young  man and a member of the Episcopal  church.  An inquest was held "Wednesday  afternoon and the verdict returned by  the jury attached no blame either upon  the company or the unfortunate victim.  Every effort was made to find his  relatives, but without success, and the  funeral took place Thursday afternoon  from St. Jude's church, Rev. J. Leech-  Porter officiating.  PALLBEARERS AND FLOWERS  At the funeral of Clarence Stelle the  following were pallbearers: J. H.  Higgins, George Henshaw, G. Higley,  Alex Fraser, Charles Fallu and Steven  Irwin. Flowers were sent by Mrs.  J. E. McAllister, Mrs. Frederick Keffer  and Mrs. Collins and a cross by Messrs.  J. W. Parker, J. W. Connell and J. G.  Hamilton. Others interested also sent  other floral tributes.  CARD OF THANKS  On behalf of the International  Brotherhood of Electrical Workers, the  local members of the union, through  George Heushaw, wish to thank Mr.  McAllister, of the B. C. Copper Co.,  for his kind assistance and sympathy  in connection with the death of Clarence Stelle, who lost his life at the  smelter Tuesday morning. Mr. McAllister, on behalf of the company,  donated a sum sufficient to meet the  funeral expenses and personally sent  flowers. The local electrical workers  greatly appreciate these acts of kindness and expressions of sympathy.  You can  rent guns,  tents  or house  goods from A. L.White,2nd-hand man.  STRIKE IN CRESCENT  Eight-Inch  Vein  of Very  Rich Ore.  AT THE 150.F00T LEVEL  Manager Jeffery Reports Good Progress and Great Encouragement.���  Putting in 7-Drill Compressor  Since the opening of the Crescent  mine under the management of W. H.  Jeffery some time ago, the work of  sinking the shaft has gone steadily on  until at present a depth of 150 feet has  been reached, and one of the best shafts  in the camp has been opened. As the  work proceeded the quality of the ore  taken out has steadily increased, and  on Tuesday night an eight-inch vein  of rich ore was struck. The vein is  strong and shows a tendency to widen  and as the shaft goes down it will  probably increase in value. The work  on the shaft will be continued until the  200 foot level is reached when drifts  will be opened and stoping commenced.  Preparations are under way for the  erection of a seven-drill electric compressor, and with this addition to the  working facilities development will go  forward with much greater progress.  Colonel Dickason, of Chicago, the  proprietor of the'Crescent, is still enjoying his Canadian holiday on the  Kootenay'lakes and he will probably  enjoy himself still better when he  hears of the latest strike.  HOME AGAIN  Local Banker Returns from Visit to  the Golden Gate.  H. F, Stow, manager for the Bank of  British North America, arrived' home  Monday night from his vacation in  California, and he looks the better for  his pleasant trip. Mr. Stow visited  San Francisco, where he found business in a most unsatisfactory condition. He reports that the progress of  the city to a renewed prosperity ia  practically at a standstill through the  labor unions refusing to co-operate  with the municipal government in its  attempt to bring order out of chaos.  The unions have all gone on strike for  shorter hours and big wages. As a  consequence building is at a standstill  and the   streets   have not even  been  cleared of the debris that fills them.  Not a wheel is turning on the electric  car system and automobiles, cabs and  conveyances of all kinds can be had  only by paying extortionate rates. Mr.  Stow is doubtful if San Francisco will  ev>:r regain its former commercial importance.  THE COPPER MARKET  Nbw York, Sept. 16.���The copper  maiket is much more active, but prices  are unchanged. Lake is selling at 18J<  cents and electrolytic at 18# cents per  pound. Sales are being made at these  prices for October, November and December account, considerable copper  having1 been sold recently for delivery  during the last month of the year.  There is very little spot copper for sale  and it is not impossible that 19 cents  may be piid for cash deliveries before  the end of September.  Chamberlain's Cough Remedy Acts on  Nature's Plan.

Ten  years ago this paper was founded  with a view to supplying the need  for a medium for local news.  During the years that have passed  it has .supplied the need with  varying success. In entering  upon another year and another  era we look forward to the future  with renewed hope and with a  determination that the success of  the.past shall be but an incentive  to attain to better aud greater  things in the future. We cannot  let this opportunity pass without  expressing our thanks for the  ever ready patronage accorded us  by the prosperous, enterprising  and <farseeing business men of  Greenwood and vicinity. In return we liave tried to provide  news of especial local interest  and "to spread far abroad the  boundless resources of the Boundary to the mutual advantage of  business, man and private citizen.  To our numerous subscribers we  render our heartiest thanks for  their faithful support and trust  that in future issues fhey"will  find an increasing interest.  One advantage Greenwood secured from the anticipated visit  of the Governor General was the  cleaning of the streets. Had His  Excellency visited the city he  would have found that Copper  street would have done credit to  a city of much larger population.

The return of J. A. Russell as  manager of Russell-Law-Caul-  field company, will be generally  welcomed. Mr. Russell was one  of the pioneer merchants of  Greenwood, who was always anxious to do what he could1 in promoting the best interests of  Greenwood.  VISIT IS CANCELLED  Vice Regal Party   Cannot Come   to  Greenwood.  The much heralded visit of His Excellency, Earl Grey, Governor-General  of Canada, has, unfortunately, been  cancelled, owing to illness. While in  Winnipeg an electric light bulb exploded one evening in His Excellency's  face and several particles of glass  lodged in one of his eyes, necessitating  surgical treatment. During the trip  across the prairies the injured optic  "did not interfere with the plans of the  vice regal party, but during the stay  in Nelson it had become inflamed and  its condition has made it imperative  that His Excellency take a rest for a  few days. The Movernor-G-'neral is  aKo suffering from a i attack of influenza as stated in the following dispatch received yesterday by Acting  Mayor Bunting:  "Acting Mayor Bunting: His Ex  cellency deeply regrets that owin^ to  an attack of influenza, which is confining him to his room, he is unable to  make the visit tomorrow, to which he  and Lady Grey had been much looking  forward.    Signed,  A. D. C."  The vice regal party   were  expected  to arrive here at 12 o'clock   noon, Fri  day. Arrangements had been made to  meet the visitors at the depot with  carriages and the band. They were to  be escorted lo the courthouse where an  address was to have been read and a  welcome given by the school children.  After an hour or two's stay in the city  they were to be driven to Grand Forks.  The cancellation of the visit has been  received by the people with feelings  of regret.  The vice regal party rwill. however,  continue their trip to the coast, arriving there in time to open the Provincial fair at New Westminster.  BIG GOLD STRIKE  Immense Deposit Found in Peace River  Country,  Vancouver, Sept. 6.���A dispatch to  the World says: "The Dominion government exploration party, winch has  returned to Edmonton after a two  years' campaign in the Peace River  country, brings a story of gold discovery which bears every indication of  being the biggest thing ever struck on  this side of the divide. Crude avsay's  made with improvised mortar, quick  silver ;ind nitric acid, indicated values  running all the way from $7.50 to $32 a  ton. Mr. A. J. Macdon :u:ll. U-ade.r of  the party, brought out several sacks of  rock, which he is taking to Ottawa to  have subjected to'an accurate laboratory test. Mr. Macdonnell describes  the dyk-: as being eight miles in  length, as far. as the explorers were  able to learn, and he believes that it  extends back to the old river : I) an k at  the foot of the hill, in half-moon fashion, at a width of nearly 5,000 feet. It  ranges in thickness from 50 to 200 feet,  with {.ravel above and below. The  rock is very soft and crumbles freely  in the hand. The theory is that it was  a silt deposit, which hardened,  "The mission of the explorers was  che selection of 4,500,000 acres of land,  which the province of Hritish Columbia  owes to the Dominion government.

The McKinley claim, on the North  Fork, has been fully surveyed and a  map will be issued showing contours,  depths and directions drilled and other  important information necessary for  the prosecution of future work. A lot  of work has been done on the claim  and it is probable that the bond will be  taken up when it becomes due.  Diamond drilling is proceeding on  the Banner claim, and upon the results  obtained ih this preliminary work depends to what, extent prospecting will  be continued, Another drill is being  kept at work on the magnetic iron  showing and a depth of 200 feet has  been reached and a fairly clear idea of  the importance of this body of magnetite will shortly be obtained.

He took  .with him over $200 worth of goods of  every kind necessary for the comfort of  himself and assistant. The trappers  will proceed as far as Canyon City,  where a supply depot will be established aud then proceed still farther  north to the haunts of the bear, martin, deer and other Animals whose pelts  hare become indispensible to the comforts of modern life. Mr. Sinclair  makes annual trips to the source of the  Kettle river and usually bringB out a  valuable collection of furs. He and  his assistant will spind the next six or  seven months practically alone in the  wilderness.  COLLECTING ORES  W. H. Cornish is busy collecting  ores for his mineral exhibit at the Spokane fair. The Phoenix council has  granted him $75 toward the expenses  of the undertaking and it is probable  that the Greenwood council will do as  well or better. Mr. Cornish -is well  qualified to conduct such an exhibit,  having had wide experience in some of  the large exhibitions in England. Mine  owners and others should supply Mr.  Cornish with their best samples and  thus assist in advertising Greenwood's  mineral resources.  Mr. and Mrs. Cairns and family are  preparing to remove to Montreal about  October 1st.  COMMON SENSE AND GOOD ADVICE  Synopsis of Canadian Homestead  Regulations.

The editor of the Hedley Gazette  recently took a trip through the I^owcr  Similkameen, which he described in  part as follows:  "At no time of the year does the  Lower Similkameen appear lo hetter  advantage tliau in the waning days of  August, when the last of the hay crop  has been garnered in and the orchards  are staggering under their loads of  luscious, mellow fruit. But the Similkameen of today and that of ten years  ago are in many respects different, for  the transition stage has set in, and has  advanced sufficiently to give the merest  suggestion of the conditions which will  obtain ten years.hence. The Similkameen of ten years ago -was almost  .wholly a pastoral scene, where the few  settlers dwelt in Aroadian simplicity  and contentment reig ned. Their herds,  numbered by the thousands,' pastured  the summer on the^ upper ranges, and  from the wide, rich valley below Kere  meos creek with its miles of 'meadow'  sweet,' was gathered thousands of tons  of sweet smelling hay, almost the entire summer being devoted to the saving of this winter's supply of fodder  for the cattle, which were brought;  down in the autumn to pasture the  winter in the lowlands. To their credit  be it said, the British Columbia cattle  men in this part of the province were  more humane than many elsewhere,  and provided amply for the winter.  Now the number of cattle has been  greatly reduced, and sub divide is the  . watchword.-^Further reduction will  'steadily be made' until a few years  hence fifteen lo twenty acres maybe  about the average holding.  ��� "In subdivision the example has been  .-set by the Keremeos Land company, in  ��� which W. H. Armstrong is the leading-  shareholder, atiia the property subdi-'  vided is that of the Coulthard estate,  purchased nearly two years ago from  Mr Coulthard, Most of the land which  ' they have sold ,is. .in ten-acre blocks,  -and on these subdivisions which have  been disposed of, something over 15,000  trees have been set out this year.  "By   the   kindness   of   Rev.   A.   H.  Cameron, who is conversant with  the  ^various holdings, is  an   enthusiast on  \the capabilities of the district for fruit  'growing,   and who   drove   the  writer  around with his horse and buggy, the  Gazette was enabled, by the exercise oi  .diligence, to see. a great deal,  but it  . .would take more than one whole day to  see it all.   ...���.,.,������-.���  MR.   RICHTER'S   RANCH.   -      ������  {Was thefirst visited, and the most no-  ���-ticeable feature was the broad expanse  i of dark green alfalfa (130 acres in one  field), the third crop this season, which  a. movrer was cutting down and a horse  fake   putting  into   heaps    ready' for  'stacking. After this crop has been  saved* another will be allowed to grow,  which will be ready to turn the cattle  into when they are brought down in  October. Ten years ago Mr. Richter  purchased thjs ranch from  Frank Sur-  ^ris^7^^d~fou1id'it1covcred;Iwith'grease5"  wood and sage brush,  with  the excep  tion of the'small   patch   upon  which  some  peach   and   apple    trees    were  planted and had been bearing for some  .years. This purchase of his was severely criticized when made, and  sundry sly wipes were given him. He  was told of the enormous growth of  weeds which had choked out the only  crop that had been'tried on that quality  of land, and ,he concluded that the  ground which would grow- such a crop  of weeds as desrribed to hint; was  about the kind of ground that he liked  best to have.' It was a common, iense  but nevertheless shrewd conclusion to  arrive at. and. the sequal has shown  the wisdom of it in the magnificent  ranch which he now has, and which  po��silily $100,000 would not buy from  him.  "The orchard covers about 25 acres  and contains a wide variety of fruits.  but peaches, apples and plums form the  greatest part. The peach crop this  year, Mr. Richter says, is not so large  as last year, pwing to a severe frost in  the spring which did some damage.  Nevertheless, it is seen that branches  have btoken: off with the weight, and  some of the fruit on the trees when  measured went ten inches in circum-  ' ference and were not yet ripe. Of  peaches, he has two varieties, the early  Crawford, which for flavor, color and  size, is not surpassed by any other  variety, and the Alberta, which,  although not equal to the early Crawford, is profitable to grow with the  early Crawford, as it comes in later and  hence might escape frost that would  injure the other, besides the advantage  of having a peach to come in after the  other was gone. Mr. Ri.-hter does not  irrigate but substitutes cultivation for  irrigation. There is no green sward  under his .trees and ne weeds are al-  BOUNDARY ORE TONNAGE.

The ".'beneficial effect  of cultivation was proven in th>. case  of the old peach trees, 19 years old,  planted by. Surprise. Now the average  life of a peach tree in the east' was  always held to be 12 years. These old  trees began to give ���'fruit very much  diminished in size, .and Mr. Richter  interpreted this dwindling-off as a sign  that thelifeof the tree had about run,  but he ; cultivated 'the soil alongside  them, nevertheless, and was agreeably  surprised to find that the trees re  spoinded with fruil in size and flavor  equal' to what they'had been at their  best.  "Mr: Richter also had a number of  almond trees, which' bore a good crop  last year, but were caught this spring  with the frost, owing largely to the  fact that by too much  cultivation ".last  year there wa< too much new wood  exposed to the weather. Mr. Richter  is'a keen observer, arid little circumstances of this kind that to others would  pass unnoticed and 'unimproved have,  for him a valuable lesson. Some may  think Hint his success'has been the re-  suit of blind luck, lint they are very  much mistaken. The.ground now covered with his orchard was formerly a  wheat field which yielded him 700  bushels off ten acres. Cultivation is  his hobby, and close observance of the  effect thereof has enabled him to turn  it to profit."

The herbs of the field and the trees of the  forest constitute nature's " medicine chest;" and the highest benefit which  science can confer on man is the discovery of nature's medicinal balms  and essences, and their preparation in form suitable for use by the people.  Bileans for Biliousness���the great Australian cure for indigestion, headache, debility, liver trouble, etc.���are purely-vegetable. They are eatirely  different and superior to ordinary liver and stomach medicines. It is ��eM  known that liver medicines hitherto in use mostly contain bismuth, mcrccuy,  and other harmful mineral products, and rely upon these ingredients for  their temporary effects. These mineral constituents are very injurious if taken  for long, and produce such effects as that of loosening the teeth, causing the  hair to fall out, etc. Bileans are entirely superior. They are compounded from  extracts and juices of the finest known medicinal plants. In taking them there  is no fear whatever of any harmful secondary effects. They cure that which  they are taken to cure, and do not leave behind them evils worse than the  original ones. They do not merely purge and weaken, like the old-fashioned  medicines, or do the work which the liver and stomach should do.   They ton*  a  up and enable these organs to fulfil their proper functions, so that when a cure  is effected and Bileans are left off, the organs remain strong and healthy. Users  of Bileans need therefore never fear their use will lead to the contracting  of the terrible "pill-taking" habit.  At this timeof the year the body needs toning up to ni-v ������  the demands that will be miule upon it by the couun.  winter.

A GOOD ADVERTISEMENT  A Plan to  Make  Greenwood Better  Known by Placing Samples Where  Thousands May See-  David Boyle, superintendent of the  Ontario government museum, was visiting his son, J. B. Boyle, of Phoenix,  early this week, and also paid a short  visit with acquaintances in Greenwood.  Through his connection with ihe Ontario museum Mr. Boyle naturally  takes a keen interest not only in relics,  but also in minerals of all kinds. This  is Mr. Boyle's first visit to this part of  British Columbia and he became at  once impressed with the importance of  the mining interests here. His interest in the Boundary mines is so great  that he will gather specimens of ore  which will make a suitable collection  to represent the wealth and importance  of Greenwood initios. These will be  labelled and placed on exhibition at the  museum and will become a standing  advertisement to Greenwood. The  importance-of this can easily be realized when it is remembeied that-thousands of, visitors from almost all par's  of the world visit the Ontario museum  annually. As it is in connection with  the University,' Normal school and  other educational institutions of Toronto, it is a source of information and  interest to hundreds of advanced students who are thus enabled to become  familiar with the mineral resources of  the Dominion. Mr. Boyle wishes to  make known that any mine owner  wishing to have his ores represented in  the collection can do so by leaving  samples at White's drug store.  GOING TO NEW YORK  W. C. Thomas, superintendent for  the Boundary Falls smelter, left Friday  for New York on a business trip in the  interests of his company. Considerable delay has been experienced in receiving the machinery for the smelter  improvements, and Mr. Thomas will  hurry things along if possible. In any  case, he expects it will be January 1st  before, all the equipment has been received and iustalled and the smelter  going full blast. When completed the  plant will have a capacity for 1,200  tons of ore per day,  N  &  be  .{son B  r  The  GROCERS.  ��th  e  'i\  T H JJ)    W AL'LA C 10 - M H U K    BLOCK  Fruits  Bananas,  Oranges,  Lemons,  Pineapples,  Strawberries  HAVK   YOU  TRIED 'IT?

McMORRIS, Sec.  J. J. MALONE, Pres.   %  AT THE SUB-STATION  Up-to-Date Plant Nearing  Completion.  POWER LINES  BUILDING  Connections Being Made With Boundary Falls, Mother Lode and  Phoenix.  The erection of the sub-station of  the B. C. Construction & Distributing  Co. :it Anaconda, has been completed  and the building is now ready for its  equipment of machinery Supplies  are coming- in slowly, and as manufacturers everywhere are rushed with  orders and far behind with their work,  it will probably be December before  the full equipment will have been installed. When the work has been  finally completed the sub-station will  be one of the best equipped on the continent. The machinery ordered is all  of the best quality aud latest type and  will be sufficient to supply the needs of  the smelters and mines tor years to  come.  At present temporary arrangements  are enabling the company to handle  20,000 volts from Bonnington, which  are steped down to 2,200 volts and supplied to the B. C. smelter. The substation is now in a. position to supply  sufficient power to run one of the new  big furnaces and this will be utilized  as soon as the copper company are  ready to start smelting. The power  company expect to be able to supply  sufficient power to meet all future demands of the smelter. "When the full  capacity has been reached 60,000 volts  will be received and steped down by  the, different .transformers-.to 2,200 and  500 volts. The company are now preparing to build power lines to Boundary Falls, Mother Lode, Emma mine  and Phoenix.* Work on the Mother  Lode Ifne will start next week, and the  others will be completed as rapidly as  possible.  At the power station L. A. Campbell,  manager for the company, has made  arrangements to provide a comfortable  dwelling; house for the employees,  three in number. Ihe house in the  rear has been fitted with modern conveniences .lnd remodeled to suit all the  needs of the occupants. The grounds  surrounding the power station and  house will be cleaned up and made into  a lawn with flowers, etc. The building  has be.n planned and finished in artistic styl:, and when . finally completed  will present a pleasing appearance and  be a credit to the community. George  Henshaw is at present in charge of the  electrical work.  THE MERCHANT'S CORNER  Helps  the Town.  Some towns are unfortunate enough  to have one or more business men who  take no interest in anything in their  community beyond that which will directly contribute to the accumulation  of money iu their owmprivate coffers,  They persistently refuse to assist any  public enterprise that will tend to improve the community at large and they  energetically combat every effort upon  the part of their employees to secure  shorter hours and a weekly half holiday. They keep their shop doors open  as late as the law or private decency  will allow, and they never under any  circumstances push their business by  advertising in the local paper. They  don't believe in advertising. It cost*  tOD much. They wouldn't even spend  one hundred dollars a year in printer's  ink, and very often they don't even  subscribe for the paper that is doing all  that it can, and more than anything  else in the whole town, to make known  abroad the resources and opportunities  of the town and district. Their penurious smallness goes still farther, and  for every possible bit of printing they  send to eastern or southern cities where  it is occasionally possible to secuie  work a little cheaper than their local  printer can possibly do it, while at the  same time they heartily abuse the customer who sends to Timothy Eaton's or  elsewhere for better goods at cheaper  prices. Is the merchant who never advertises and sends east for his printing  any better than the customer who buys  goods in the cheapest market?  Cold nights are coining and you want the best underwear.
